Dog-Eared Books is an oddity: It's a bookstore ... that's growing. In addition to its Valencia Street shop for new, used, and discount books (plus odds and ends like maps), there's a new Castro store. Read more

Good selection of new and used and comics . I'd say I never walk out empty-handed, but then that's true of me in 99.97% of bookstores . Go read!

Lindsay Eyink

An excellent selection of SF and CA books , Pantone kids books , and rare used stuff. Curation is an art and they've perfected it.

Great little used bookshop with lots of classics, ESP beat literature and San Fran authors. Sadly little room to sit and read.

Best used book store in the mission unless you want scifi, then head to borderlands!
